You can't for AT&T U-Verse. They won't assign an IP address to a 3rd party device. I've been meaning to get some cards and do some raw frame dumps to try to figure out how their Fiber modems work and see if I could get it to assign my own device an IP address. It's on the long list of things to do.

I've read how all you need is put the AT&T router behind your firewall and proxy the 802.1x packets to/from the AT&T device, thus faking out the upstream gateway.

I don't have AT&T so I didn't pay much attention to the details. One possible approach: https://github.com/jaysoffian/eap_proxy
